Does this look like a mint error or something that occurred afterward? I am new to collecting so I apologize if this is a dumb post.

Definitely occurred afterward. A genuine planchet clip from the mint would show significant weakness on the side opposite the clip.

Not a dumb post at all, you cannot learn without asking questions

Clipped planchets have tell=tale diagnostics that cannot be faked, ACE mentioned one in regards to rim weakness. That weakness is known as the Blakesley Effect and it occurs during the milling process that forms an upset rim on a planchet. This post has a nice example of a genuine straight clip.
